"Take time for a hair and make-up trial run about two months before your wedding. Make sure you have a photo of your dress to share with your stylist and bring lots of photos of styles and looks that you like. If you are not happy after the trial run, schedule another one, so you are fully confident that you will like your look on your wedding day.
Pro tip: schedule your trial run on the day of a bridal shower or engagement party, so you can have your hair and make-up done for the occasion; if you are having a formal up-do, just ask your stylist to take it down after you’ve approved the look.
Pro tip 2: If you think you want fake lashes on your wedding day (you do!!), be sure to have your stylist put them on during your trial run if you've not had them before, so you can get used to the feeling." –
